Chapter 102 She Will Go To The House

On the estate, Adelaide is busy cleaning her garden. Ever since her husband assigned her and their daughter to this place, she herself harvests the vegetables she uses for their meals and raises some chickens that some of the peasants gave them after they moved. These have multiplied by now and they have meat, eggs, and fresh vegetables every day. Thank God they don't lack food and, although the house is small, they have lived peacefully and she, all things considered, is happy here. She heard about Lilith and Vítor's death. Some of the maids who usually pass by there say that it was Egil himself who sent them to their death for a betrayal he had discovered, but neither Mercedes nor Irene have told her what really happened. She, on her part, preferred not to ask too much about it to avoid reopening wounds for Mrs. Irene, who has suffered a lot from the death of her adoptive daughter.
